Shobi

VIEW:18 DATA:01-04-2020
SHOBI.—According to 2Sa_17:27, a son of Nahash the king of Ammon, who, with Machir of Lo-debar, showed kindness to David when he fled to Mahanaim at the time of Absalom’s rebellion. There is some doubt about the name, however, as in 1Ch_19:1 f. the son of Nahash who succeeded him was Hanun. S. A. Cook (AJSL xvi. 164) suggests that the text of 2Sa_17:27 is corrupt, and that it originally read ‘and Nahash came,’ instead of ‘Shobi, son of Nahash.’ The very existence of Shobi seems, therefore, uncertain. If, however, the present text of Samuel is sound, it is a better historical authority than Chronicles.

(Heb. Shobi', שֹׁבַי, probably another form for Shobai [q.v.]; Sept. Οὐεσβί; Vulg. Seb), a son of Nahash of Rabbah of the children of Ammon (2Sa_17:27), and one of the first to meet David at Mahanaim on his flight from Absalom, and to offer him the hospitality of a powerful and wealthy chief, for he was. the son of David's old friend Nahash; and the bond between them was strong enough to survive, on the one hand, the insults of Hanun (who was probably his brother), and, on the other, the conquest, and destruction of, Rabbah. B.C. 1023. Josephus calls him Siphar (Σιφάρ), “chief (δυνάστης) of the Ammoanitish country” (Ant. 7, 9, 8).
